Your chiropractic treatment is a package of care that is designed to treat:-
Depending on the severity of your symptoms, you may be offered movements or exercises that are appropriate to you, designed to improve your symptoms and prevent them reoccurring.
This may include movements designed to increase your flexibility, strength and balance and coordination. However any movement is fundamentally designed to increase your CONTROL over your patterns of movement and therefore prevent further episodes of pain and discomfort.
In the initial stages of your treatment you may be given therapeutic movements that are extremely gentle and designed to be 'non threatening'. You may be shown ways of moving that avoids or decreases your pain.
As your symptoms improve you may be given exercises that are specifically designed to address issues of strength, flexibility and coordination. Your chiropractor will certainly discuss lifestyle and how you can ensure that this is promoting your health and not negatively impacting on it.
Regular physical activity of moderate intensity, such as brisk walking, can bring about major health benefits. Physical activity:

The treatment is very helpful both for my chronic problems and any acute episodes. My husband has also had treatment for accute problems and also finds it very helpful. I would thoroughly recommend the Chiropractic Centre and it is definitely worth paying for the relief from pain and mobility problems....
